Mining and Tunnelling equipment

Experience and innovation.


These two words symbolise GIA industri ab. Experience as a result of our longstanding involvement and in-depth knowledge of the underground industry, and innovation that is evidenced by our constant strive to introduce new ideas and developments. GIA was founded back in 1884. Initially, GIA sold tools, consumables and other essential items to companies in the region. The embryo of todays business was conceived in the early fties, when GIA began importing and selling heavy locomotives to local mines. These were in great demand and in the sixties the company took the decision to start building its own locomotives. Since then, GIA has grown steadily and what was once a typically local supplier has become a company that regards the entire globe as its market place. Today, GIA is represented in every continent of the world with around 80 percent of sales exported overseas. This trend is continuing and whenever a new tunnelling or mining project is set up anywhere in the world, GIA is on hand. Continuous development is also a feature of the products of the Grngesberg company. It is our ambition to be a complete supplier of equipment for the mining and tunnelling industry. Wherever the customer is based in the world they should only need a single contact GIA industri ab. Our product range is almost complete with locomotives ranging from two tonnes to fty tonnes, Charging and Service trucks, complete system for underground Ventilation, low proled Kiruna Electric Truck for underground haulage and supply of a full range of high-speed tunnelling equipment including digging arm loaders and Shuttlecars haulage systems. New machines and applications are being developed continuously to meet market demands. Thanks to its customer orientation, GIA is in many ways a problem-solver to the mining and tunnelling industry. Customers all over the world tell us what they need and GIA puts together a tailor-made solution. In this way new machines are developed in collaboration with the market. All manufacturing takes place at GIAs production facility in Grngesberg, Sweden, which has been extended and modernised to cope with the volume of orders. The fact that production is managed entirely by GIA also means that the company carries out its own quality testing on all products before they are delivered to customers around the world. To achieve the best results for customers around the world is and aftermarket service of great importance to the GIA. GIA is working to the greatest extent with representatives offering local service.

Kiruna Electric Truck

General information

Facts

Technical features

Kiruna Electric ED is the only electric truck in range of 35 and 50 ton capacity for underground haulage. In the normal haulage the truck is powered by an overhead trolley line (no exhaust fumes), when leaving the trolley line a small TIER III diesel engine (~80 kW) is activated. The diesel engine is mainly used when you have no access to the trolley line e.g. loading and dumping stations.

Ramp haulage applications are normally based on diesel trucks. Due to low speed and excessive exhaust fumes, when going up the ramps, not all the advantages of ramp haulage could be fully exploited. The truck technology in Kiruna Electric represents a completely new and economically competitive ramp haulage alternative. The Kiruna Electric has been in operation all over the world since mid 1980s.

High speed in steep inclinations. Environmentally friendly. Low emissions. Less noise level compared to other alternatives. Less ventilation needed. 4-wheel drive with one AC motor on each axle. Softer driving gives less spare parts consumption and longer life time. Lower operating cost per ton transported.
